172 The child makes a choice

"Sir, there are two prayers."

The old attendant of the late Yan respectfully handed him the prayer note handed over by the porter.

Yan was roasting the smokeless charcoal newly bought from Xujiazhuang at home, warmed his hands, and then suspiciously accepted the greeting post handed by the old entourage.

People came together, but they handed over two copies, and this was not the first time he had encountered this kind of thing, but this was the first time he found it difficult to do.

One is the son of the third master of the Gongsun family, and the other is a new celebrity under General Gongsun who is in charge of the three counties.

That new celebrity, the uncle of the Great Confucian clan sent someone to tell him sternly earlier, and he was not allowed to see it.

Otherwise, the scholars in the world are afraid that they are afraid of Gongsun Zhan's reckless man.

And Gongsun An, he has already heard what Gongsun Yuan said, and it is not easy to see.

It's just that the clan uncle has the identity of a great Confucian, and he is not afraid of offending people, he is a small white body who resigned and returned to his hometown, but he can't afford to offend people like Xu Da.

Yan Yu hesitated, and the time came from noon to mid-afternoon.

Xu Daxi had expected it, and asked Lao Wutou and He Zeng to take out the straw mat charcoal basin on the carriage early.

The straw mat was spread on the ridge in front of the house, the charcoal basin that was burned warm, the small table was set up, the hot tea was boiled, and the daughter was given the deeds of the great Confucian in the Yan clan while drinking tea.

In Xu Da's words, Gongsun An is a fool.

So as a simple man, I was not in a hurry when I came to ask to see me and not get started.

Looking at Xu Da as if he had come for an outing, he was still a little nervous, and suddenly relaxed.

Relying on himself as an errand in the county government, he has heard a lot of strange things, so he naturally told Xu Yue the story.

Rong Bo, who was sent by the Xu family to stare at Gongsun An, looked at the leisurely two big and one small in front of him, and was so anxious that he only turned around in front of the gate of the Yan family.

The old aconitum looked strange, and kindly soothed: "Steward Rong, come over and have a cup of hot tea together, it's still cold, drink a cup of tea to warm up, let's wait slowly, the old man of the Yan family may have something to delay, and he will always come out when he is empty." ”

If it is a protracted war, then we must protect all forces.

The old aconite, who had already followed Xu Da to block the door many times in this way of "people are shameless and invincible in the world", thought calmly.

Xu Yue was discussing with her father the possibility that she could turn a Yan family disciple back to Zhuangzi, and the closed door of the Yan family squeaked and slowly opened.

The old entourage walked out of the gate, and what he saw when he raised his eyes was Xu Dazhong sitting on the ridge at the door, leisurely drinking tea.

This is completely different from the anxious pacing and eagerness of the imagination!

Thinking of the killing of the Bohai Confucian, the old entourage was shocked in his heart, and then looked at the young man who was holding a teacup and turning his head and laughing at the moment, he couldn't help but sigh that this general was really not ordinary with the new celebrity.

The old attendant walked over, bowed first, and returned the prayer note that had been sent.

The old aconite took it, and he recognized it at a glance when he had just learned a few words, and it was his master's greeting that was returned, and his expression suddenly looked a little unsightly.

Xu Da waved his hand, waved away the old aconite, took his daughter, and led Gongsun An over.

The old entourage smiled awkwardly and said, "Please invite Young Master Gongsun into the mansion." ”

Gongsun An looked at Xu Da in surprise: "Cousin, let's go in!" ”

Xu Da bowed his head, and took his daughter to follow Gongsun An into the house together, the old entourage looked at it and was shocked, what kind of operation is this?

He obviously returned the worship post to Xu Da, why did he still follow?

But Xu Da didn't look at his surprised old face at all, and only followed Gongsun An and entered the mansion together.

When the old entourage reacted and rushed forward to intercept the person with trepidation, Xu Da pointed to Gongsun An and said seriously:

"What's wrong with me coming with my cousin?"

The implication is that I don't use my Xu Qingyang's name, I'm just a supporting role who follows my cousin.

Looking at Xu Da's indifferent face, the old entourage was dumbfounded, I didn't expect you to be such Xu Da!

Xu Da smiled at him, and then took his daughter and walked away.

Still Yan Gu reacted quickly, heard the report of the next person, knew that Xu Da was squeezed in, and brought a daughter, so he hurriedly called the old mother and asked her to take care of it.

After all, he really didn't dare to offend Xu Da to death, since he had already entered the mansion, he would make a move to drive people away, and Xu Da was afraid that he would make him look good.

I didn't see the river before, just because Xu Da had a little difficulty before he made a career, he was thrown into the toilet by Xu Da for an hour of personality humiliation?

Xu Da himself probably doesn't know this statement.

If he knew, he would have thrown this bastard who spread rumors and slandered himself into the pigsty to feed the pigs!

As soon as Xu Yue followed her father to the gate of the second courtyard, she was greeted by an old woman who was seven or eight points similar to the second lady Yan.

Looking at the age, he is more than ten years older than the second lady, if there is no accident, this should be Yan's old mother Yu.

Old women in their sixties are rare in this era, and they are used to being pampered, and they seem to be a little sluggish in their actions.

The two daughters-in-law held her and walked towards Xu Yue.

is worthy of Yan's mother, the two of them use the same face, and they both look the same gloomy, like a witch who specializes in catching children in ghost stories.

Although she tried her best to wave at Xu Yue with a kind smile, she was not as kind as the two ladies beside her with low eyebrows and drooping eyes.

Fortunately, Xu Yue was not an ordinary child, and she did not flinch because of the old lady's appearance, stepped forward, gave a blessing, and reported her name.

"The master is already waiting in the study, the two adults can rest assured, we will take care of the young lady."

Yu's eldest daughter-in-law said with a smile, never raising her head from beginning to end.

Xu Da glanced at Xu Yue uneasily, Xu Yue smiled at Daddy, saying that he was fine, and Xu Da and Gongsun An left.

As soon as the men left, the three women were obviously relieved, and they were much more comfortable, and they dared to raise their heads to look at Xu Yue.

Seeing that she was dressed strangely, but when she looked closely, she could see the subtlety and preciousness of this dress, and she frowned in confusion.

"What does Yue'er like to eat? Caramel or pastry? ”

Yu's second daughter-in-law asked with a smile while holding Xu Yue's hand.

The child made a choice, and Xu Yue responded sweetly: "All of them~"

"Uh......" The second daughter-in-law obviously didn't expect it, so she smiled for a moment before nodding again, and asked the subordinates who followed her to prepare.

Xu Yue followed them to the backyard, where the fence was built very high and a few big trees were planted, revealing a cramped and gloomy courtyard, which should have been spacious.

Xu Yue thought at that time, if women lived in such a place for the rest of their lives, would they get depression?

Thinking of the courtyard of the second lady that I have only been to once, it seems to be so dim and suffocating.

Xu Yue was immediately glad that her cousin and grandmother were not guilty of this rich lady abiding by the rules.
